The fact Of the MATTER is that il 10 not
positively settled what the University
will be used for. Some arc in favor OF q
Normal school aud others want it devoted
to the purpose for which il was built. IL
was erected for the benefit of boys and
girls and should be used for this purpose.
II teachers desire education, ii is much
easier for them to go to California and get
it than it is for parents OF limited means
TO send their children there to get learning.

The Mexican and His Lottery.

The Mexican is patient; he scans the lot

il his ticket has drawn nothing, be lights
a fresh cigarette and buys q fresh ticket.
This morning my opposite neighbor in
the horse car was q tired looking old
who had evidently once seen bet
ter days. She smiled t%houghtfully to
herself, and, after fdgeting about for a
few minutes, furtively drew from her
pocket q lottery ticket which evidently
had drawn something, for che rode ON as
near as she could go to the Office where
the money is paid over to the winners.
Everybody buys these tempting little
fimsy tickets. printed on paper 30 thin
that a Summer zephyr would blow them a
mile. The stout priest in the corner Of
the street car takes ont q ticket that he has
Just bought, and looking at it scrutinzingly,
puts it aside in a long pocketbook. as if it
were q share in some promising venture.
Your servants buy tickets, and the beggar
who EFFORTS a real from you will hurry
around the corner, not to buy q drink,
but, rather, Q ticket in the great daily
wheel turning show, the one business that
never stops, is always fi%ourishing and
which pays salaries year 10 aud year out

COURT.
A Foul SIander Refuted.
Silper State.

w otNtt
Judge Fitzgerald, who is now holding
court at Phoebe, Lincoln county, tele-
graphs County Clerk ellison that he will
be here on the 23d instant. to transact any
business that msy come before the court.
In this connection il may be we'll to
state that the assertion in q Virginia City
paper that /" in Humboldt county there IL
loud and bitter complaint on the part Of
the legal fraternity about the filing of the
calendar and the manner in which the
cases are called has no foundation in
fact. The lawyers and the Clerk of the
court say there 10 no truth whatever in the
assertion, and the public knows that there
lie DO complaint among the people. When
Judge Fitzgerald was here Q month ago
he disposed OF every case on the calandar
that the parties were ready to try. Yes
terdsy all the attorneys here sent q letter
to Judge Rising, the Presiding Judge Of
the District Court, stating that Judge
Fitzgerald had given entire satisfaction,
and had disposed of all the cases that were
ready for trial.
Why q newspaper which lays claims 70
responsibility should publish such a false
assertion as that above quoted cannot be
conjectured here.

lament for duty on flour. The reso-
luton, as originally proposed, read:
Owing to the great depression in our mlnu.

Mr.. Marriage, of Colchester, sail ne
agreed with the resolution, but plrliam sHt
before consenting to impose snch duty
would require some data. Hs had been q
free trader as long as he could remsm ler,
but the present position OF the milling
trade throughout the country did stin
to cali for some steps to be taken.
Mr. Seth Taylor advocated dlty oa
flour, but hoped the resolution would b.
amended as suggested; sin fact 1t WAS 4
question OF free trade or protection, AMI
he did not MiRkthe BOW uRLerS mould sttSt

The resolution was then amended by
striking out the remainder of the sentence
after the words, "Irish millers shouIdn
